If you spend enough time traveling around Oklahoma, there is no shortage of things to see.

The world's biggest sasquatch. The blue whale. And Oklahoma's highest-rated lighthouse - the Oklahoma Lighthouse - located on Lake Hefner in OKC...

It's also Oklahoma's only lighthouse - sort of.

There is one other lighthouse listed in the annuls of lighthouse records online, way out in Western Oklahoma.

Centennial Lighthouse was erected overlooking a pond built in the same park area as the Elk City elementary and high schools. It was to celebrate Oklahoma's 100th year anniversary back in 2007 - but since the pond isn't considered "navigable water," it's a technicality.

It's still a pretty sight to behold during a signature Oklahoma sunset though...
